During the time of Robert
and David Bruce Scotland had secured her freedom; but she still faced an
uncertain future. England was resentful. None of the outstanding issues
between the two countries had been resolved, and for many years the Border
itself was not clearly defined, leading to an almost permanent state of
conflict. The Wars of Independence were over; a new war was about to
begin.
This is the first full
account of the later wars between England and Scotland, and it deals with
all of the main aspects of that conflict. Our attention is also drawn to
the less well-known story of the Scots soldiers in France who fought to
save that country during the darkest days of the Hundred Years War before
the advent of Joan of Arc. |
